Audit guidance

WCAG version and level

WCAG is a set of accessibility requirements for digital products. Automated tools can check some rules, but manual review is still needed.

Practical WCAG choices
Choice Plain meaning When to use it
WCAG 2.1 A stable and widely used version of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines. Good for checking many common accessibility barriers across websites and web apps.
WCAG 2.2 Adds more practical criteria on top of 2.1, including focus visibility, dragging, target size, consistent help, and accessible authentication. A strong choice for current product audits and accessibility improvement work.
Level A Basic barriers that should be fixed first. Use for an early scan, not as a final accessibility target.
Level AA The practical baseline most teams aim for. Often used for public websites, product audits, procurement, and EAA readiness work.
Level AAA The strictest level. Helpful, but not always realistic for every page. Use for high-priority journeys or content where extra accessibility quality is expected.

The European Accessibility Act (EAA) raises accessibility expectations for many digital products and services in the EU. For most teams, WCAG 2.2 Level AA is a sensible working target, alongside manual testing.
